As most of yall know im getting a leveling kit.(still debating on which one). I like this one though http://www.4wheelfab.com/3inlilespfor.html but im wondering would i need a longer control arm or anything longer to do this? I will be getting new shocks.
I wouldn't be sticking a 3" spacer on top of your coil springs. If you want that much lift you should take a look at a lift spring or swaping your stock ones for a diesel/v10 spring, that will give you the 3" your after. And I'm sorta confused, you say your looking at a leveling kit but your looking at the 3" spacer? You should only need a 2.5" tops. You may want to take a look at Hell Bent Steel, I just got mine from there, it's a well built spacer and the shipping was fast, even to Canada.
And just a heads up, I steer away from companies that have typos in their selling points.
"Less shipping weight, but just as strong or stronger that the competition."
The reason I wanted 3in in the front is cause I have a heavy bumper and soon a winch up there. So I was planning on running the 3in spacer. I didn't want a rough ride of the diesels lol cause we already got one=P
hope you plan on puting a add a leaf and block in the rear cause your front well be higher than your back. My truck has a pro comp 3" lift/leveling kit. the kit lifted the front 3" and the back 2 3/4" now it sites level.
Yup I am putting an add-a-leaf in the back. I just want to know if I got with a 3in spacer or the diesel springs if I will have to get longer control arms or make anything else longer besides shocks.
you don't need to change anything but i would put new shocks on since your there. and as far a spacers vs springs. springs well give you stiffer ride spacers no change
You'll have no problems fitting those size tires. I had 305s on my old dodge without a lift and im pretty sure auggie is running 35s with a 3 inch body lift
yea, 33s will fit with no lift, and personally, the 3inch spacers are fine... i have a set of the daystar 3inch spacers... and no problems... so, your basicly adding 3inch lift... and it will level... youll fit 33's just fine
